Showing Off

By Schulmanator,

Showing Off Before I get to other business, a few folks asked me to show off a few more pictures of my trip to Arizona. So, a representative sampling of the journey will be shown below. With of course some SC4 stuff in it to stay legit. Let the games begin! First, I must leave my palatial estate to meet my throng of followers down at Simtropolis Park. Why not come along for the ride? Resized to 79% (was 1024 x 819) - Click image to enlarge Plenty of available parking today… I wonder who will be coming by...

New Hestorbia

By Schulmanator,

Admiral Islands: New Hestorbia Our secret base, Admiral Islands Naval Base, is located in a new garrison town, also named New Hestorbia, on the island of New Hestorbia. Yes, not that creative… Anywho, the town has been tapped to be the colonial capital and has become the largest settlement in the colony. And a new colonial governor, Sir Peyton Meowning, has arrived to administer the archipelago. The Colonial Administration Center is the heart of the Admiral Islands government Admiral Islands Colonial...

Schulmania’s Newest Maps +Lies & Confessions! This is the latest set of Schulmania maps. This features the four districts of the Kingdom of Tenne. This is the heartland of Schulmania, and is available to you if you wish to build on it, as a map called “Heartland” – available on the STEX by my good buddy Vandy. Here’s a link: Now, for the three maps you will see… And this is a real treat, because Schulmania does not issue many maps. With over 18,000 combined posts in Schulmania, there are fewer than 36...

Puss in Boots: A Sim Movie You know him… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZ2OMABZjkM Now, join him on the adventure of nine lifetimes! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-d-NJHxJ37A Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, a litter of kittens was born on the farm of Señora Evita de las Gatas. The señora was the matron of the family farm, a cozy spot on the plains. The farm was well known for its quality catnip, among the best in the whole region. Unfortunately, the quality catnip did not bring in enough money...

SimGoober Fest 2011

By Schulmanator,

SimGooberfest 2011! Sometimes I just want to putz around with Sim City. So, I have a region or two not part of Schulmania that I use when I want to do something different. In one region, I build big. In one, I build random. In the random one, I had a medium size tile I decided to put something lower density on. (In case you are wondering, the tile was named Catclaw Acacia, which may become the official national tree of Harar). As I was building, I noticed that there were tons of SimGoober’s buildings...

Restoration

By Schulmanator,

Devonshire: Restoration We continue our journey to the restored city of Schulmericho. Government officials have spared no expense in restoring the city to its former glory and expanding it beyond the original walled footprint. And, to increase security in the liberated area, a permanent army garrison and a navy base have been added to the city. Additionally, a commercial port, a restored and fortified ferry terminal and the nation’s first rail station make Schulmericho a hub for Schulminion transit....

These are indeed trying times. But, in such times, opportunity arises from the ashes of crisis. The Government of Schulmania has not sat by idly allowing itself to be attacked and destroyed. Ever since the specter of invasion first became evident, extensive preparations have been made to fortify and defend the homeland. Though still only in their nascent form, a comprehensive military has been designed and work is progressing quickly to produce the soldiers and sailors needed to suppress the evil tide...

Schulmania celebrates its seventh anniversary on Simtropolis with a special anniversary chapter.

The Government of Schulmania and Bureau of Feline Affairs are sponsoring this, the first Feline World’s Fair, to celebrate feline culture worldwide. Feline and feline-friendly nations are invited to exhibit here, as are feline...

The Twelve Tribes

By Schulmanator,

Schulmanicus: The Twelve Tribes The Smightower, an ancient Feline Heritage Site on the home island of Schulmanicus, received a very unexpected guest: a wooden ship from The Northlands. The Northlands is the area north of the Schulmania border, occupied by tribes of loosely organized non-domiciled felines. The twelve known tribes/clans of the area have thus far expressed no interest in joining the international feline civilization inhabiting the continent to their south. Occasionally, they will trade with...

New Leadership

By Schulmanator,

The Wirdleplex: New Leadership Salembourg, Schulmania’s Corregidor on the eastern coast, protecting the mouth of the strategic Wirdleonia River from enemy attack, is in need of a new mayor. The former mayor resigned his position to take up a feral lifestyle in the hills of Harar. Let’s take a look at the island town and then we’ll see who is running for office. Now, let’s meet the candidates. There are four candidates vying for the office. And, representing the rich diversity of Schulminion citizens, the...

East Tenne: The Simpsons Come to Schulmania Here at the Simpson home in Springfield, Bart Simpson, as usual, is being naughty. He needs something to do to stay out of trouble. He watches TV and finds something which catches his eye. And, as usual, Home is not motivated at all to get off the couch… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNr_NE3tl6g So, he stays behind on the couch to watch football and the rest of the family prepares to go to the World’s Fair! The family heads to the airport after picking up a few...

Roane-Anderson

By Schulmanator,

East Tenne: Roane-Anderson Work has been completed on the new and massive permanent capital for the Kingdom of Tenne. Two competing projects upstream on the Wirdle River, Camp Roane (built by the X-10 Design Group) and Camp Anderson (built by Y-12 Engineering) have met on opposite banks of the river, creating a new city spanned by multiple bridges and having a vibrant synergy between the two riverbanks. The new city is just west of the site being cleared for a new national capital. Roane-Anderson,...

Theater District

By Schulmanator,

East Tenne: Theater District In the ninth arrondissement, located north of the Wirdle River in the heart of the city, a magnificent gift from the Supreme Wirdle to the people of the capital serves as the focal point and as a dazzling example of the grandiose Capital Style architecture which dominates the expansive new capital. The National Theater presides over the district and is the home of the National Symphony, National Orchestra, and the National Ballet. Of course, many more fine arts are located here...

Night At The Museum

By Schulmanator,

East Atkinos: Night At The Museum It looked like a great day for laying out in the sun and chasing small rodents. After all, the sky above West Forest, the capital of East Atkinos, was blue with the occasional puffy cloud. But then, the wind picked up and the clouds rolled in. Next thing you know, it started raining. Now the squirrels can scamper in peace (and in the rain) as the felines take cover. No chasing and sunbathing today. Maybe we should go to the art museum instead. It's dry, they have art, and...

Schulmania

By Schulmanator,

Schulmania's Gonna Learn You Good! For the greater good and the edification of all readers, I am going to give you a photographic education about my Thanksgiving weekend. We went on a donut scouting and foraging expedition to the Donut Den and stopped by a few sites around town whilst devouring the Pastries o' Perfection. Gather 'round and prepare to be learned good. THE PARTHENON Built in 1897 to celebrate Tennessee's centennial, this Nashville landmark (in Centennial Park, of all places) is the only...

A Garden Stroll

By Schulmanator,

East Tenne: A Garden Stroll The second arrondissement of the national capital, adjacent to the Royal Quarter, is the Feline Quarter. The Feline Quarter is the home of the magnificent Bureau of Feline Affairs palace, which serves as the administrative headquarters for BFA activities in Schulmania and its colonies. The district centers around this landmark and its extensive gardens, but contains far more than just a palace. The bustling and densely developed district will be explored in multiple updates, as...

The Great Fire

By Schulmanator,

Western Wirdleonia: The Great Fire The Schulmauckland District of Wirdleonia comprises of the diplomatic enclave island of Stovokor (in the Sea of Simtropolis) as well as two small towns, Wirdlington and Dadatoetoe. In the district, the only thing of real interest (to Klingons) seems to be Stovokor. On the mainland, the two towns have a mere 600 residents between them, plenty of small farms, and little else. Although, Wirdlington is one of only two towns directly named after the Supreme Wirdle (Wirt being...

Part Three: Klingons Off the Port Bow In the far southwest of Schulmania, beyond Schulmanukau and beyond the Forks of the Wirdleonia River lies an area only recently opened to settlement. This remote area was declared off limits for some time now. The Supreme Wirdle's decree did not give a reason, but it was obeyed without question. Now that the order has been lifted, two small settlements have been built, Dadatoetoe and Wirdlington. And, a port has been built on the sea whose presence has been known only...

Discovery

By Schulmanator,

Admiral Islands: Discovery Day after day, the monotonously smooth journey from the Schulmania coast continued. There was very little to distinguish one day from the next; the weather had been calm and nothing unusual had occurred. Supplies remained at adequate levels, but it would be helpful to secure some additional fresh water soon. Shortly after sunrise, a sailor aboard the Black Mace reported something on the horizon. It was still a ways off, but it was the first thing on the horizon since the...

East Tenne: Welcome to Wirtyplace Schulmania’s sixth anniversary update features the home of Schulmania’s beloved, inspirational, soft and furry leader: the Supreme Wirdle. Her home for ages has been Wirtyplace, a structure built in ancient days in the center of the original capital of the nation, Wirt. But, her nation has outgrown its small capital and has built a massive new one on the western shore of the Tenne Sea. Her adoring subjects have spared no expense in building her a lavish palace commensurate...
